specific factors which had a direct impact on player’s remuneration. These factors ranged from performance measure of players such as Strike rate (in case of a batsman) to physical attributes of players such as age. We applied techniques of multiple linear regression to determine such factors which were deterministic in pricing the players. Best Regression model(s) The following are the independent variables which are derived after doing regression analysis. Where‚ * Country = 1 for India
